Chris Kickstart set up the handover in Lancaster, PA precisely in Lancaster Brewing Company. I planned my route like this:
Nokesville - Leesburg - Frederick - Westminster - Manchaster - York - Lancaster
I left with plenty of time to get there, but my shortcut was slow and I had to stop every so often and check the iphone map. But it was a great ride and PA is beautiful this time of the year and I typically get lost in PA anyway. All those towns, it was like a mini UK excursion:)
Got to ride over the old bridge in Columbia too - thats a cool bridge.
To the Lancaster Brewing Company I came late, Chris was already waiting for me. I grabbed a beer - Hop Hog - quite nice even for my Czech taste buds and we decided to skip food since it was getting late.
Chris rode his beautiful CB750F and since he was going to DC we took 30 West and later 15 South to Frederick for 90 miles long joint ride through York and Gettysburg. Sunny weather but the air was cold and with sun going down it was getting colder. In Frederick we filled up, shaked hands and Chris went to 270 South towards DC and I took 15 all the way home.
She performed beautifully all those 8+ hours with stops only for gas and handover, without any problems keeping 80 mph on express ways with some throttle left.
I definitelly need better mirrors and the open face helmet is just clear pain for longer trips, I can see getting a full face in very near future.
Chris has the picture from handover, I took one at Point of Rocks where GZ entered Virginia. Will post that one later.
